Five Nights at Freddy's Problem

We all know how FNAF is the one project topic that is almost impossible to find… Although Scratch handled it wrong, If little kids play and get scared… Then just add some sort of age restriction rule or a “Adult supervision Advised” thing… Don't go Blacklisting thousands of creative coders just because some kids played on their OWN WILL and got scared, That's just my opinion. Do what you want Scratch, but please don't do things like that…

I'm pretty sure scratch is for ages 8+, it wouldn't be 8+ if you needed an adult to see the project, now would it?

Five Nights at Freddy's Problem

Scratch is supposed to be a site for all ages, and the ST has said before that they don't want to allow age restricted projects because it would be divisive to the community. It's not just the kid's choice- there are also parents who might be upset if they found out their child was playing games like that on a children's site.

Five Nights at Freddy's Problem

Well how am I supposed to find FNAF, I just can't? Stick to something else? Oh yes Fine, I try not to be this way… This attitude is resulted by people's actions towards something… I just wanna code FNAF, I'm only 12! I can't do click-team or Other coding stuff because A: I have a Chromebook only and B: they Cost $!

Nobody said you couldn't code it, if you do code it though, you probably shouldn't share it.

…What? That's the whole point of Coding games! To Share? If I'm the Developer than… That wouldn't be fun? I know EVERYTHING about my game! *Sigh* I guess Y'all missed a way to find thousands of FNAF Projects… It's so simple that even Scratch didn't think of…

The reason why they banned FNAF was because lots of people made scary clones of FNAF. Since teachers and parents were shouting at Scratch for scaring the kids, the ST had to remove them.

However though, you might download the project as a .sb3, and use an sb3 to exe converter (lots on Github) to convert it to an executable. Then, share the executable with everyone you know! I think that would be the best way forward.

Oh… That poses problems.

If you can have temporary access to a Windows computer (try the public library), you might use that instead, if they allow downloads. Then, just transfer the .exe to a flash drive and share it with whoever you want.

But sadly, you can't do FNAF projects.

What's your project about? If it isn't too scary it might get accepted…

My Project Currently is an (Truthful) Ultimate Custom Night Fanmade, but It's kinda just a “thing”: No lore, Just Survive, I even put the warning After your ready for the gameplay
when I receive [ Warnings]
set [ Ghost] effect to (100)
repeat (4)
change [ Ghost] effect by (-25)
wait (0.1) secs
end
wait (1) secs
set [ Ghost] effect to (0)
repeat (4)
change [ Ghost] effect by (25)
wait (0.1) secs
end
broadcast [ Start]

A warning won't do. You need to remove all horror elements (that means no jumpscares and stuff).

Oof, Well… How about a mode selection, Like a Bar at the top that says either Grown-ups and another one saying Kids and each will toggle whether it's scary or…Funny? (Thinking of a way to make it Funny now Oof)

If a project is scary, it is likely not allowed whether it is a FNAF game or not. Projects on Scratch must be appropriate for everyone, not just yourself. That includes 8 year olds with protective parents. A warning does not change whether or not a game is allowed on Scratch. The same goes for a mode selection, a child could just as easily click the adult mode.

A kid could easily ignore the warning/mode differences even if the project would be too scary for them. Parents need to be able to trust Scratch as a safe platform even for their child who doesn't understand how a project could be too scary until they get nightmares from it.

No. You can't… All shared projects need to be kept appropriate for all ages. Sorry mate.

What you can do, though, is duplicate the project. You'll keep the first one unshared, but the second one is where you'll make it not scary. You might try that.

Yeah, sorry. I know how annoyed you are… It just isn't allowed to put anything inappropriate for young kids here.

Well, you could put FNAF in ROBLOX. Most of the people who want to create horror games move on to Lua.

This isn't really a ROBLOX discussion so maybe try about avoiding those posts, they kinda beat the purpose of the forum.

But it did help with the discussion, so it is perfectly fine.
